The Challenger Homes Difference

Buy A New Home in Colorado Springs!

Who buys a Challenger Home? Families looking to upgrade and wanting more house to call home. They're our friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Moms and Dads looking for good homes in the right neighborhoods with exceptional schools for their children. First-time homebuyers giddy with excitement over every lick of paint and strip of sod. Folks whose kids are grown and are looking to right-size. Families coping with a family member with a disability. Returning combat veterans. Single moms looking for an affordable home.

A Challenger Home is different. A Challenger Home makes life better.

Sometimes it’s the extras like better quality decking or wider baseboards. Often, it’s the little things one may not even notice like 6" exterior walls and higher rated insulation. In every facet of every home the commitment is clear. Making life better by offering outstanding value, building more house to call home, designed around the customer at an affordable price and constructed by a builder you can trust. That's making life better. That’s Challenger Homes!

From the simple approval process with a Challenger preferred lender, to that magical day when a Challenger executive hands over the keys to that brand new home, Challenger is constantly seeking to make each stage within the experience a delight. Challenger listens and cares, designing homes with customers in mind, not fancy awards for show and tell.

Every decision. Every home design. Every Challenger neighborhood. Every process or system. Every employee and trade partner. All focused on one simple idea. Making Life Better.

Why Buy New?

Reasons and Advantages for Building a New Home instead of Buying a Used Home

The pride of owning a new home simply cannot be replicated. Building your own home, that’s uniquely yours, just the way you want it, is a satisfying experience. There are a multitude of reasons for building new. Here are just a few.

CHOICE – personalize the colors, cabinets, flooring and just about everything else in your new home at our Design Studio

CLEAN – with new home construction everything is neat and clean and you don’t have to worry about a previous owner’s toenail clippings in the carpet!

EFFICIENT – new homes are more energy efficient saving you lots of money on utility bills

LOCATION – with new construction pick the ideal neighborhood and perfect lot

WARRANTY – take advantage of our in-house warranty – we stand behind our work and the people who build your home come out and fix your home if anything goes wrong

SUPERIOR CONSTRUCTION – current building codes will ensure a superior standard of construction compared to a home built 20 or 30 years ago

LOW MAINTENANCE – brand-new materials and operating systems in our homes offer high performance and low maintenance. A new home can be operated for 20-30% less than a home built prior to 1980

SAFER – better materials and craftsmanship and adherence to building codes make new homes substantially safer than used properties

HEALTHIER – elimination of any hazardous materials make new homes healthier including better indoor air quality that can improve your family’s health

STORAGE – older homes typically have much smaller closets and storage spaces than new homes
